Hey Michael,
You seem to have missed something along the way. The answer actually lies in
your own explanation of the problem.
For that location, you already have a handler -> Apache::Registry, what you
want* is your .pm as the handler for a particular location. I think if you
page back a chapter or two you'll see examples of how httpd.conf or
.htaccess files should be setup.

(omitting all mention [except this] of stacked handlers for this example)
